The BBC has seen trained personnel in the East. See http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-27017707 

So this week is the time to worry. Easter happens on Sunday. For both churches. Holidays are a good time to implement military action. And there are a reported 40,000 Russian troops close to the border.

I always thought that opening an anthem with “Ukraine has not yet died” was a bit pessimistic. However, it does exemplify the past and current Ukrainian situation.

Here is hoping that we can still sing “Ще не вмерла Україна” this time next year.
